Buz and Nick,
I think what you said would be great. I got a mini DVR camera and could
ride along for the shots. I was thinking something along the lines of what
you said, plus maybe some filming from behind and in steep turns, and
perhaps a slow cross underneath from one side to the other. Got a few idea.
Let me know when you get out and want to set up to do the flying video. I
can be out at the airport in 30 minutes. Phone is (931) 455-6874. Brian W.

Subject: Re: Lightning-List: need a video
Nick, The next time I am out there (end of next week), I would be happy to
be the video platform if you want to get some action shots (I will fly the
video-grapher in 31BZ). Besides the normal close formation that you and I
normally fly, I can get in close trail and film you flying whatever
maneuvers you
want filmed. It might also be good to get some fingertip formation video
of
two Lightnings in flight - video from the ground with you and I flying
Lightnings on a low pass down the runway.

| Subject: | WHat heated pitot tube are you guys using? |
I was wondering when equipping a Lightning for IFR, which brand/model heated pitot
tube is typically installed?
Are there any issues with the wing already being closed?

Another thing I was wondering about...
If I complete the Lightning and have it inspected for air worthyness at a dealer.
Can the aircraft be ferried to my home airport to fly off the hours? Or when
I start flying off the hours, can I change my home base to another airport
within the 50 mile radius while flying off the hours?
The dealer is about 70 miles from my home airport, however, there is another airport
inbetween that is

I don't know if you can go more than 50 miles, but John Davis took his home
with about 5 hours I think. Now his is really close by, so it may be within
30 miles. Good question though, that I like to know. Brian W.

Jim,
The answer to your question is, "It all depends". It really depends on
the FAA office or person that you are dealing with. For example, the DAR
that does the inspections in SYI is an EAA member and aircraft builder himself.
He has done many aircraft inspections for the SYI gang (Jabirus, Esquals,
Lightnings and others) and he certainly feels comfortable with the work that is
coming out of that shop. Therefore, he would probably be more inclined to
give his "stamp of approval" on something like a test area that had a
different home base than the one the aircraft made the initial flight from.
As far as ferry permits, again it would depend on the FAA office you
were working with, but a ferry permit might be harder to get approved unless you
were much closer to completing your 40 hours. If you chose to trailer your
completed airplane home, then you would work with your FAA office in you home
area to get a specific test area approved there. They would also be who you
go to when you put in for your "Repairman's Certificate".
Sorry I can't be more specific.
Buz

DOes the lightning require 50 hours or 25? I'm asking that because I'm not sure
if the 3300 is viewed as a certified engine by the FAA and therefor does not
require the additional hours like a kit built engine?
(please excuse my ignorance)

Boy, Jim, you really must be looking at some old regulations. Based on
current regulations, the Lightning will require 40 hours because the engine is
not certified (part 23???) in the US. If you had a Lycoming or Continental on
board (US engines) it would be 25 hours. In the old days (when I built my
Pitts) it was 50 hours no matter what.
You will be surprised how quickly the time goes by IF you really do a full
test profile for your airplane. Many do not.
Blue Skies,
Buz

Nick- Cool new pictire on the main page of the site.
However, I like the last picture better you put up
when you had the heading 'Lightning Fast'. The plane
looked bigger and sleeker from that angle. The

Hi Buz and Nick,
This is Peter Disher - Sydney Australia.
You mentioned Buz, a "Full test profoil" when flying off ones hours.
Could I ask, In my ignorance, Is this a written procudure for one to
follow ?
If so and if aviable., could I get a copy? or let me know where I could.
It would certainly be most helpfull when my turn arrives.

Peter,
I have forwarded to you via email all the Word attachments that Buzz kindly
provided some time ago (thanks Buzz).
Whilst I'm here, I'm looking for contact info for the builders of two
Lightning's that are being built in Perth, Australia currently. Anyone on
those on the list?
